Over the last week a lot of us have been through a big snow, the big chill and now that some warmer weather is on the way the meltdown has ensued. Walking through ice, snow and now large puddles of water at the end of each block can make your dog’s walk seem like an […]

52 DAYS 2015 – Celebrate with your dog!

Thanks, You and Your Dogs Are The Best!

I didn’t know if other dogs would enjoy the treats as much as my dogs did, if anyone would buy them or realize what care I took in selecting ingredients for Bone Du Jour treats. I paid attention to sourcing ingredients before it was the popular […]
